I think that is something general that you notice about music. First and foremost there must be a good beat, rhythm, and sound, past that the words, or meanings are less important. Even if you do not know German, all Falco's songs are better in German, than in English. Also all Nena's songs including 99 Luftballons. The original German version is tops. Don't listen to the English version. Also, the Peter Schilling "Major Tom" is better in German, because that was the original and it sounds better, whether or not you can understand it.
@@beaniessumners276 You're a clever, beanie. Except that "Amadeus" is a Latin name meaning "love of God" or "one who loves God". Whereas "Asmodeus" is mythological and has like a dozen different spellings - none of which are "Amadeus". They are, if you can read, completely different words. So I guess you can safely go back to listening. Dolt.
Back when this song was popular, a radio station in Louisville Kentucky was changing its call letters. I believe it was from WKJJ to WDJX. The DJ at the time disagreed and locked himself in the booth. He managed to play this song at least 37 times in a row before they could unlock the booth and take over. That was nearly 40 years ago and a wonderful memory from my childhood.
Yes it is! But listen also to "Vienna calling" and "Sound of music" which was also performed and written by Falco! He was a true musician and great singer!
The motorcycle gang in the video is a genuine one from back in the days, they aren't actors. When Falco died 1998, they had the honour to carry his coffin. Greetings from Vienna
Just to give you an idea of Falco's standing in Europe, there was a stage musical a couple years back that was about Falco and Freddie Mercury. Scenes alternated between both artists' rise, triumph, and untimely deaths. Dude's a hall of famer.
I'm on vacation in Vienna and this song is stuck in my head. I went to the Schönbrunn Palace yesterday and just found out that where we had dinner last night was where Falco used to live. Now it will NEVER get out of my head.
❤Today we remember Falco, (Hans Hölzel), who was born on this day in 1957. He scored a 1986 UK and US No.1 with the single Rock Me Amadeus Rest in heavenly peace Falco amen.
I am 64, do not understand, read nor write German BUT....I know a great artist when i hear and see one. FALCO was a musical genius and had he lived longer truly would have had the impact the same impact on music as Mozart had.
Falco simply was a music genius. As an Austrian I'm proud that one of my people has achieved something, no other German language singer has. To reach #1 in the US billboard charts with this legendary song called "Rock Me Amadeus".
@@InternetMameluq he's long dead, of a car crash in the Dominican Republic, likely under the influence of alcohol and cocaine, both of which were problems for him. February 6, 1998

I remember this song in 1986, I believe it became number 1, in US & some other countries. Couldn't get enough of this song. Still like it after 35 plus years. RIP Falco. You are reunited ( maybe) with your twin siblings.
My brothers heart stopped to be adding for over a minute after he overdosed on heroin years later he was finally willing to talk about what he saw what he was dead and guess what he said nothing! Black no memory of the incident he described it as a falling asleep
Falco was a genius. He was way ahead of his time , and because of that often misunderstood ,even in his own country . He then was already bigger than life and not to many at the time realized it. RIP ,Falco and thank you for leaving us your music to remember you by.
I’m pretty sure no one cares but, my mom used to have this on a record and I called them big cds, anyway I forgot about this song for such a long time and I could never sing the lyrics I’m jus now finding out it’s in German.

not random. it's your memory getting exercise by showing off how loud and clear and flawless it is, and there's a LOT of stuff there you hardly ever listen to.
I truly believe Falco was an unappreciated genius and some whose genius kept escalating with each creation. He managed to find video directors who captured visually what he had in mind, especially with this video and the one for The Sound of Musik (which is banned by YT but can be seen on Vimeo). Such a tragic death. I hope it was quick for him. It is a pity we do not have Falco with us now.
@Briseur De Lance me too! the word "impish" comes to mind. Only man that ever lived that could be sexy in a tux or in lace & a rainbow fright wig. WOOF!
He was a punk and lived in the big city It was in Vienna, in Vienna, where he did everything He had debts because he drank, but women all loved him anyway And everybody screamed: "Come and rock me Amadeus!" He was a superstar, he was popular He was exalted, because he had flair He was a virtuoso, he was a rock idol And everybody screamed: "Come and rock me Amadeus!" [Hook] Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus - oh, oh, oh - Amadeus Come and rock me Amadeus! Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus - oh, oh, oh - Amadeus [Part 2] It was around 1780 and it was in Vienna No plastic money any more, the banks were against him Everyone knew where the debts came from He was a ladies' man, women loved his punk He was a superstar, he was popular He was too exalted, and that was his flair He was a virtuoso, he was a rock idol And everybody's still screaming: "Come and rock me Amadeus!"
@Jorge L De Jesus - It wasn't CDs back then sony, we had something called a record and it was made out of this kinda plastic called vinyl and you had to flip it if you wanted hear the music on the other side. There was a giant huge box that you had to play the record on. We were drinking and dancing all the time. Shooie we had some great times.
This song brings back so many great memories. We played this all the time in a gym I was a member at. It helped us to rock on and pump iron to our hearts content. A great song it was, and still to this day. RIP Falco Great Entertainer

I remember hearing this in the 80's while taking German in school
🐐🐐🐐
Kib@szott nagy tehetség volt!!!!❤❤❤❤
Falco is literally one of a kind. There was and is no one else like him
For some reason this song reminds me of millennium by Robbie Williams and that song reminds me of this one. Idk why
Well yeah, the same can be said about every human ever. Every living thing, ever.
@@nathanwilliams3877 not really
@@3x6-r6bliterally, we can
@@3x6-r6byes really. No experience is the same even if circumstances are. Even ones own.
Falco was incredible...talent,genius,crazy,charisma,good looks.This song is just perfect!My favorite!!!
ja...
Good looks? Not so much. Rest yes
How is he crazy???
Yes, he was handsome!
Sounds good to me
Neue Deutsche Wellen. Ihr seid die Besten.
i’m so happy this song randomly popped into my head at 2:43 in the morning.
lol me watching bobs burgers made me wanna listen to it
6:25am and I was idly thinking of googling Asmodeus because, well, Magnus Bane. When suddenly, a random earworm appears!
not random. it's your memory getting exercise by showing off how loud and clear and flawless it is, and there's a LOT of stuff there you hardly ever listen to.
@@Psycandy these random thoughts are a blessing in are timed traveled.
Not early in the morning, but for some reason this song just popped in my head and I had to watch this
It's a Classical Music thing. You wouldn't understand
Wutaii1 Nostalgia go away
The new Justin Y but for nostalgia
@@crabman6132 lol. Except I make content and all of the comments were by accident while I make videos at night listening to music. Sucks but true lol
Not again
Why are you on every old songs LOL
I wonder, is Falco still rocking up in heaven! You never tire of his music...His uniqueness is unparalleled by no other...The one and only Falco!!
I'm sure he's rocking out up there with Mozart, Prince, Bowie, MJ, George Michael, Whitney Houston and all the others who died too young.
Wow!!! How I enjoyed this song 🎵 as a teenager! Falco was amazing!! Fantastic! 👏👏👏👏👏
This song is proof that the only "language" that truly matters, and that everyone understands, is great fucking music!
Unfortunately, that's not true. Not everyone understands music.
Indeed!
@@richardsantanna5398 fair point, but at least it shows that sometimes the language of music can transcend other languages.
Math begs to differ...
Or just great music.
I truly believe Falco was an unappreciated genius and some whose genius kept escalating with each creation. He managed to find video directors who captured visually what he had in mind, especially with this video and the one for The Sound of Musik (which is banned by YT but can be seen on Vimeo). Such a tragic death. I hope it was quick for him. It is a pity we do not have Falco with us now.
And yet you lie, for what reason?
ruclips.net/video/vzqwS6w2Sto/видео.html
The Sound of Musik official video. It's NOT banned on YT.
He sold 20 million albums; that definitely isn’t under appreciated
i could only imagine what falco could have created had he not died
@EE EEEEEE EEE EE EEE EEEE he's dead for a very long time now...sadly

The real Amadeus would have said he didn't like the song and then he would be secretly dancing to it in his living room.
Of course right after he played with his own shit...
😂🇦🇹
@@Fooftilly Know what? he wasn't deaf.
@@Fooftilly because all sound is vibration?
@@Fooftilly: Beethoven was deaf. Mozart wasn't.
0:39 to 1:13 is the best introduction in 80s music video history. The hand motions/gestures Falco-isms are inimitable.
Neva gets old. Classic tune. RIP Falco
This is still a better song than these modern music today
Agree totally
Hurricane Joker It told me I have cancer never checking the next thimg I do makesmt world there is no.afterlife 8 yet..
No plastic money anymore!!
@Mrs Cyclone I thought Neva was a typo for Nena, for a sec. Ahh, 80s German pop stars!
It's impossible to make a song in German that comes first on US hit charts!
Falco:Hold my beer!
Hold my mozart-rainbow-wig.🌈❤👌🏽
@@zaydeen9877 lol
@Brian Pimblett hell no. I will not listen to it.
Brian Pimblett There is an AMERICAN version of this!!!?
@@ericpraline yes. It totally lost it's austrian Falco charm.
Falco's smile, at the end. :-) I just love it.
Why?
@@leonel2009ish why not? 😂
@Briseur De Lance me too! the word "impish" comes to mind. Only man that ever lived that could be sexy in a tux or in lace & a rainbow fright wig. WOOF!
This song has always been a favorite of mine ever since I was a kid!! One of my music teachers in middle school ADORED this song!
"I love you, Dr Zaius".
"What's wrong with me?"
"I think you're crazy"
"Want a second opinion!"
"You're also lazy!"
You finally made a monkey out of me.
From Chimp-an-A to Chimp-an-Z
Can i play the piano?
@trau guy?? i couldn't before!
This song still kick ass in 2023. Classic 80s live forever.
Yo lo escucho desde argentina, esto es música verdadera ❤
They'll never be another 80s like the 1980s
😢😢😢
i love the 80s the 1780s that is.
Türkiye'den dinliyorum. Gerçekten çok etkileyici
He was a punk and lived in the big city
It was in Vienna, in Vienna, where he did everything
He had debts because he drank, but women all loved him anyway
And everybody screamed: "Come and rock me Amadeus!"
He was a superstar, he was popular
He was exalted, because he had flair
He was a virtuoso, he was a rock idol
And everybody screamed: "Come and rock me Amadeus!"
[Hook]
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus - oh, oh, oh - Amadeus
Come and rock me Amadeus!
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus - oh, oh, oh - Amadeus
[Part 2]
It was around 1780 and it was in Vienna
No plastic money any more, the banks were against him
Everyone knew where the debts came from
He was a ladies' man, women loved his punk
He was a superstar, he was popular
He was too exalted, and that was his flair
He was a virtuoso, he was a rock idol
And everybody's still screaming: "Come and rock me Amadeus!"
Ty
Thank you
You're doing the Lord's work :-D
You win
Thx
Fantastic music from 80s
Falco always puts a smile on my face even in this Dark World we're living in.
❤😂
He said it best when he went ommerflecken goonersmacken
o cara começou a cantar
Whenever i put tapatio in my tacos, I sing this!
@@t.vampiro4800 That's radical
RIP Falco, Thanks to this 80s super hit I remember people buying Amadeus CDs 💿 putting him on the charts , something incredible , I was 15 at the time
@Jorge L De Jesus - It wasn't CDs back then sony, we had something called a record and it was made out of this kinda plastic called vinyl and you had to flip it if you wanted hear the music on the other side. There was a giant huge box that you had to play the record on. We were drinking and dancing all the time. Shooie we had some great times.
@@mikeblair2594 CD's were released in Europe in 1983 and Falco 3 wasn't released until 1985 and primarily in Europe first.
They had both. are you sure you're old enough to have lived back then?@@mikeblair2594
How is it I am only now realizing he was rapping in German?
I LOVED This song when it was new.
I love this song even it is not new.
It's Austrian Not german😂
@@nele8379 Do Austrians speak German or Austrian language, huh? Funny 😂
It's Austrian German......
@@florianstumpf4349 Hahaha, ok 😀
1:00 Theres just something about the movements and the way he sings that part i love
the Best Falco
My friend and I referees this part all the time!
this wins "the most awesome song in a language I dont understand" award
AGREED! SECONDED!
Try Hoch Wie Nie
It's probably not Hoch Deutsch so the German translation will be off
@@TheRedAirOn most parts are German but he uses English words in some sentences and often rhymes them with German words. Although he's from Austria
@@ibe4zzzi96 I see
This song brings back so many great memories. We played this all the time in a gym I was a member at. It helped us to rock on and pump iron to our hearts content. A great song it was, and still to this day. RIP Falco Great Entertainer
